Denafrips -Bashing Denafrips New 12th anniversary models

If you would Pleaee , how many people have had issues with their newDenafrips dacs ? One guy  golden sounds is saying Denafrips has major issues with popping and scratching sounds and can even cause Speaker damage , I personally know one who has a pontus2-12 anniversary ,and a terminator 12th not one issue . This guy is a young kid trying to destroy Denafrips ,because it’s not exactly a true non oversampling in the purest sense . Myself or anyone I know is a digital engineer .speaking for myself if it sounds good that’s all I care .

please if any other people  are having issues please state this ,and model ,serial#   if possible ,Thanksmuch , honesty for all is most important then trying to destroy a brand for whatever personal  reason !

I've had the Ares 12th-1, and now Pontus 15th, ran both with an Iris 12th; no problems whatsoever, with either.

Terminator 1…love it. Zero desire to upgrade to anything I’ve heard since!

I am no fan of Denafrips.  Their firmware upgrade v3.7 made all the Iris DDC's previously purchased inoperable with the Terminator Plus's.  They strung me along for a while promising to fix the issue but never did.  They expected me to buy a newer Iris to work with my Terminator Plus or roll back the firmware and never upgrade it again.  So one or the other pieces of gear was going to be obsoleted. 

It stinks that they would knowingly make products they sold and marketed to be used together suddenly incompatible without offering some path for making owners of the Iris DDC's whole in some manner.   

To me they are a company of low morals.
